Damn. Maybe one of our resident Leftists can teach me a thing or two about “Copy and paste”.
By the way, you think I’m being too hard on our beloved Leftist posters?
Don't be condescending, hun.
How I feel about those things does not require specificity or support, because they are feelings.
I love the US, land of my birth. Things have taken a bad turn there lately, thanks to growing and now excessive stratification.
Antifa is a reaction to fa. I expected it. See also: Yin/Yang.
Didn't work for you.
Looks as though Trump and his goons will have to go it alone this time.......Putin is not happy with him.
Most of this election’s disinformation is coming directly from the White House — not Russia
This year’s election has shown less evidence of foreign interference than the 2016 campaign, but experts say President Donald Trump has used some of the same methods to pump misinformation into the political bloodstream.
The president has taken Russia’s social media playbook from four years ago and and used his position to amplify those tactics to divide and distort, reported The Guardian.
“I’m sure that there is some foreign influence stuff happening and we might know more about it later,” said Whitney Phillips, a Syracuse University professor who studies online misinformation. “But so much of the pollution is trickling down from the White House itself, and people have been absolutely overwhelmed with falsehoods and confusion over COVID and ballots.
This year’s disinformation campaigns are aimed at depressing enthusiasm among Black and Latino voters for the Democratic candidate, just as Russia and the Trump campaign both did in 2016.

No, I don't. But I'm not sure there is a payoff to this discussion.
Rare is the person who will accept new data as a way of validating his or her decisions and viewpoints.
Could also be coming from India. Maybe you're not Spike Trader, but actually someone named Pashta Rohip.
Joe Biden, Kamala Harris Got a Big Social Media Boost from Indian Troll Farms
Joe Biden's Twitter account got a sizable boost beginning in August from tens of thousands of fake followers purchased on the open market from troll farms in rural India, an investigation has found.
Within two weeks of Biden selecting Kamala Harris as his running mate on August 12, his Twitter following jumped by 738,595 new followers—a 9.1 percent leap. The number hit 11 million by the third week of October.
A close examination has revealed unusual patterns. A large number of Twitter accounts that followed Biden's appear to have been created exclusively for that purpose. And a large number of the users are located in small towns in rural India—in places where English-speakers are rare, and from handles run by people who don't speak English as their first language, nor appear to be genuinely invested in American politics.
A Zenger News investigation reveals that Biden's increasing social media footprint in India came from the country's infamous troll farms boosting his candidacy.
Kamala Harris's ethic heritage is in part rooted in India, but her share of Indian and apparently Indian followers is far lower, about 0.12 percent.
Sock Puppet Sweatshop
Some of the operators who worked on the campaign spoke at length about how propaganda agencies in New Delhi and Mumbai activated a widely distributed troll network to amplify Biden's campaign impact on Twitter.
In discussions over the Telegram app, Harshit Patel and Yajpal Yadav discussed the part they played.
Patel runs a small cybercafé near the railway station at Umbergaon, a small town four hours north of Mumbai near the Maharashtra-Gujarat interstate border. From 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, he scans IDs of customers and allots them a PC for twenty rupees an hour. On the side, he and his Photoshop-savvy wife Sejal make photocopies, print ID cards, do small design jobs and offer lamination services.
"This was started as an internet café by my father in the late 1990s," Patel said, speaking in Gujarati-accented Hindi. "Back then, men came in mostly for chatting in IRC [Internet Relay Chat] rooms and surfing porn. It was brisk business. But then internet became so cheap and everyone got smartphones and business petered out. We had to rely on passengers asking to print railway tickets, fill up online forms, and get documents photocopied. But that didn't even cover the costs of maintaining the PCs and paying the electricity bill. Things changed in 2012–13 when [Narendra] Modi started his campaign for prime minister. And this became my main business."
What Patel means by "this" is the business of running a troll farm after his shutters go down at 8:00 p.m.—which is 10:30 a.m. in New York and 7:30 a.m. in California.
Four of his employees, young men who live in the neighborhood, take their stations at long desks that line two walls of the tiny shop, and open up task sheets assigned to them. A Google Doc tells each one of them who to follow, who to retweet, what to retweet and what comments to leave on specific posts.
Using aliases—each worker controls several hundred—they schedule tweets, check engagement stats and, at the close of their shifts, fill up a spreadsheet with their analytics from the previous day.
The guy is poop scared(and with reason too) that the black lady at SDNY has a docket , ready and waiting.
Hillary will be laughing her ass off.
Trump is preparing to declare victory on election night without 270 electoral votes: report
President Donald Trump will reportedly declare victory on election night before getting the necessary 270 electoral votes — if it looks like he’s ahead.
Sources closes to the president told Axios correspondent Jonathan Swan that Trump is expecting to take an early lead in Pennsylvania, although Democratic nominee Joe Biden may pull ahead as more votes are counted.
“Trump has privately talked through this scenario in some detail in the last few weeks, describing plans to walk up to a podium on election night and declare he has won,” the report said.
In recent weeks, Trump has falsely signaled that votes counted after Election Day are fraudulent.
